 A tool (script) is available to change DNS from bind to djbdns and back on your CentOS 7 QMT host.

 * During the ClamAV install the virus databases are downloaded. The download time
   is unpredictable. The download may be well under 5 minutes but may take as long
   as 30 minutes...or more. Please be patient with the ClamAV installation, the databases
   will eventually download, and ClamAV, and the Toaster packages, will ultimately install.

 * After a recent CentOS 7 install I discovered that eM Client email client caused a segmentation 
   fault on the QMT host. After increasing the submission softlimit from 64000000 to 1280000000 all 
   problems were resolved. The error was absent in Thuderbird. 1280000000 may be overkill, I didn't 
   drop the memory allotment after the segmentation fault desisted. A lower softlimit may work for
   eM Client.
